Firstly it does not indicate how an Event Sink is expected to derive the binding details for the Notifications. Will the Notifications be sent as RPC/Encoded, Doc/Literal? Will the Notifications be sent using SOAP 1.1 or SOAP 1.2? Secondly, the relationship between the "endpoint reference for the event source" and the annotated portType is unclear. One might think that the "endpoint reference for the event source" is equivalent to the wsdl:port that implements a binding of the annotated portType, but this conjecture is not supported by any text or example. "Service Metadata for Eventing" is also technically incorrect in that it requires Event Sources to process a WSDL containing output-only operations in order to generate the code necessary to correctly process and dispatch Notification messages which is a violation of BP 1.1 R2303. While one could argue about the relevance of WS-I profiles to infrastructure-level protocols, it is clear that creation of Notification handlers is, in this context, an application-level activity as the type and structure of Notifications is driven by the application and not WS-Eventing. 24190 1 bob 2009-03-12 02:04:26 +0000 2009-03-11 proposal at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Mar/0060.html 25667 2 bob 2009-06-23 11:56:59 +0000 2009-06-11 Agreed to merge with Issue-6401 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 6401 ***
